Determine the number of moles within a sample of 10g of propane(C3H8). Round your answer to 2 decimal places with proper units.

Given :

10 gram sample of propane( C₂H₈ ).

To Find :

The number of moles of propane in given sample.

Solution :

Molecular mass of propane, M = (2 × 12) + ( 1 × 8 ) gram/mol

M = 32 gram/mol

We know, number of moles is given by :

Number of moles, n = m/M

n = 10/32 mol

n = 0.3125 mol

Therefore, number of moles in given sample is 0.3125 mol.

atomic number of carbon is 6

electronic configuration of carbon is 1s²2s²2p²

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%
